Preparation is vital to success. DELIVERY
Raker-Roberta's ships directly to your greenhouse.

Structured to meet the needs and requirements of small- and medium-sized growers, Raker-Roberta's offers a range of features unrivaled in the horticulture industry:


NO HIDDEN FEES
Our quoted price is our bottom line. Whether the price quoted is delivered or freight-on-board, Raker-Roberta's never adds-on royalty, boxing, handling, or fuel charges. Raker-Roberta's rewards readiness with two disco

unts that apply regardless of the season: Early Order and Volume. Early Order provides a 10% discount on any order placed 12 weeks before the ship date. Volume rewards an automatic discount between 8-33% (depending on your order history). FREE QUOTE SERVICE
Always submit your order to Raker-Roberta's for a competitive bid. Our pricing structure is intricate to provide small and medium-sized growers with the best possible price on plugs and liners. This service is no charge to you and ensures you are getting the best price. TAG SERVICE
Raker-Roberta's is a simple solution for your plant tag purchases. If tags are not provided as part of a patent, let us know and we will deliver them with your plants. Our small bundle sizes (and delivery savings) make ordering tags from Raker-Roberta's a smart choice. MULTIPLE TRAY SIZES
We primarily grow product in 6 tray sizes (3 plug & 3 liner trays). In addition to these standard tray sizes, we have the ability to grow product in another 24 sizes. CUSTOM GROWS
In addition to the plant varieties we list, a Raker-Roberta's specialty is custom growing. Once a custom is approved, the minimum for seed items is only 3 trays and vegetative items is only 200 cuttings. AVAILABILITY / SPECULATION INVENTORY
In addition to custom-grown items, we maintain an extensive “at-once” inventory. Our real-time inventory management system ensures trays ordered online (www.raker.com/availability) are truly in-stock. When you order a tray from Raker-Roberta's Availability / Speculation, you will receive that tray (not a substitute). Our tried-and-true packaging delivers high-quality plants intact and ready-to-grow. Additionally, a 50-tray order qualifies for private (grower) delivery, or we will place your order on our patented shipping cradle system. Plant products ship via FedEx, UPS, and Air. Or, stop by our facility and pick up your order. BROKERAGES
All Raker-Roberta's orders route through our network of 35 broker offices. This network completely covers North America – for a list of brokers, please contact us. If you ever have questions or concerns regarding your plant products, please feel free to contact Raker-Roberta's. We believe open communication is key to a successful business relationship.
